Do your share to stamp out the mercerized cotton 'cheat" in Cloth- r . . ... ing which is making rich unscrup ulous manufacturers and dealers. Stand for all-wool and honesty in your clothes and you will stand withus, no matter whose cl. thing you buy. W9m I1L V 1 Jill it S0Vi D I'll Ili'flwMFy '' Good Clothes Wearers: Because wool, like many other good things, is higher priced, mostclotH- ing manufacturers have deliberately j cheaoened their Qualities to keen prices down.

The excuse is, "It is necessary in order to hold our trade," which amounts to saying that you who want good clothes will not pay for having them good, Ihyour grocer puts sand in your sugar to avoid charging you a cent a pound more for fear he "wquld lose your trade" he'd lose it all right, but you would let a clothing dealer do the same thing to your clothes, put into them in some cases as much as sixty or seventy per cent of cotton; you may be wearing such clothes now. Under the circumstances 'voir are justified in assuming that any manufacturer or dealer who doesnlLsay plainly that his cjothes are all wool is offering you cotton mixed goods He may have a lot to say about style, fit and the way they are . made, but if he dodges on the all-wool pointTHepend upon it i hat the "sand is in the sugar' You may-Buy sucli clothes if you choose. If you do so because they arccheap and you .think you can't: afford better, you deserve respect, but you will find all-wool the real economy. We stand for the highest possible standards in clothes.
